Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolGennady P is a robotics engineer and physicist with a Ph.D. from EPFL and seven years of experience bridging academic research and hands-on product development in Switzerland. He combines deep analytical and mathematical skills from postdoc roles at EPFL and CERN with practical embedded systems and IoT expertise as lead engineer at Skyentific, where he develops open-source 6DoF stepper-driven robot arm software. Comfortable across hardware, firmware, and motion-control algorithms, he implements inverse kinematics, precise stepper synchronization, and acceleration profiling for real-world robotic applications. His background also includes applied industrial projects like high-pressure antenna development and a stint in structured products, reflecting an unusual mix of rigorous research, commercial engineering, and quantitative finance exposure. Colleagues describe him as a robotics hobbyist who turns experiments into accessible builds and documents progress via an active GitHub and YouTube presence.
